Re: delta s=(qrev)/T
The rev means that only the heat of a reversible reaction can be used in this equation when calculating delta S, the entropy change.
Hope this helps!

Re: delta s=(qrev)/T
rev means reversible in the context of the equation where q rev is equal to -w.

Re: delta s=(qrev)/T
The rev is implying reversible- because this equation applies to reversible processes.
